Before Driving

Check the following items before you begin driving.

Exterior Checks

• Make sure there are no obstructions on the windows, door mirrors, exterior

lights, or other parts of the vehicle.

• Remove any frost, snow, or ice.
• Make sure the hood is securely closed.
• Heat from the engine and exhaust can ignite flammable materials left under

the hood, causing a fire. If you’ve parked your vehicle for an extended period,
inspect and remove any debris that may have collected, such as dried grass
and leaves that have fallen or have been carried in for use as a nest by a small
animal. Also check under the hood for leftover flammable materials after you
or someone else has performed maintenance on your vehicle.

• Make sure the tires are in good condition.
• Make sure there are no people or objects behind or around the vehicle.

DRIVING

If the doors are frozen shut, use warm water around the door edges to melt any
ice. Do not try to force them open, as this can damage the rubber trim around the
doors. When done, wipe dry to avoid further freezing.

Interior Checks

• Store or secure all items on board properly.
• Do not pile items higher than the seat height.
• Do not place anything in the front seat footwells. Make sure to secure the floor

mats.

• If you have any animals on board, do not let them move freely in the vehicle.
• Securely close and lock all doors and the tailgate.
• Adjust your seating position, mirrors, and steering wheel properly.
• Make sure items placed on the floor behind the front seats cannot roll under

the seats.

• Everyone in the vehicle must fasten their seat belt.
• Make sure that the indicators in the instrument panel come on when you start

the vehicle, and go off soon after.
